About: I enjoy spending time with animals, so there is always a guarantee that your pet will enjoy some quality time whether I am just playing with them and giving them a potty break, feeding them, or walking them! I have taken care of many people's pets before including older dogs, adolescent dogs, puppies, cats, fish, and more! I have a special place in my heart for animals, and I have a dog of my own, Ray, who is my best bud! I know how much pets can mean to us and impact our lives, and I know how important it is for people to know that their pets are well taken care of! I also know how much we miss our pets when we are away, even if it is for the day, so I am willing to go the extra mile to pamper your pet and do any extra things that will make you as the owner feel more comfortable with me caring for them! In the summer I have a free schedule! Other times my availability depends on the week. I can be flexible to meet your pets’ needs. I will treat your pets, like my own, like family! I am happy to implement any sorts of structure or training that you are doing with your pet to keep things consistent. I understand the importance of not only physically stimulating your dog, but also mentally with different types of enrichment.

About: We are experienced in taking care of small and large breed dogs. We love to walk them and care for each client’s pet as our own. We have been a pet owners for over 20 yrs and also help take care or family and friends pets when they are gone. We love caring for dogs. My wife works weekends and I work through the week. Someone is home all day. We are gone for church and kids activities in the evenings and Sunday morning. We have 4 kids ages 7-17 that love helping with the dogs. Your dog will get plenty of attention while boarding here. We have a small puggle who is 5. My daily personal pet care routine consists of 2 meals and water daily. 1-2 mile walks. Toby gets a treat after he goes potty. We let him out in the fenced backyard every 3-4 hours or when he goes to the door. He also likes to lay on the deck and sunbath. We love and treat each client’s pet as it was our very own. We love to care for dogs and have a special connection with them. We are patient and kind and take time to learn each pets routine and behaviors. We can’t wait to get to know your dog and care for them!

“This was our first time using Rover and Caitlin made it a great experience. Caitlin was very punctual and answered any questions we had quickly. Zoe loved having Caitlin coming to check on her every day and we enjoyed getting pictures of Zoe. Hopefully when we need another sitter Caitlin will be available. Thanks again for looking after our furbaby.”

About: I've had at least four dogs as long as I can remember. As a child, they were my first companions and my second caretakers. Even as I grew into an adult, they were always there to comfort me and to brighten the darkest of days. Dogs hold a very special place in my heart and I am eager to give back what they so willingly give; love, acceptance, understanding, comfort, and joy. In the last two years, I have gone from four dogs to one, due to Cancer and Congestive Heart Failure, and I must admit that their absence has affected me deeply. I miss them so so so much!! I'm one of those people that celebrated their dog's birthdays and bought them copious presents for Christmas. While my friends were pulling out their family pics, I was always pulling out my dog pics. I share this same sentiment towards birds, rabbits, and cats; all of which I had growing up. Being surrounded by animals as a child was a great experience. It even prompted me to volunteer at the ASPCA for almost a year. As I hope you can tell, I will not only provide what your pet (s) needs to survive, but I will also provide him/her with special attention and love. I look forward to meeting with both you and your pet! Until then, take care! I will be able to fulfill any house/pet sitting duties without any issues, as I am able to balance my obligations responsibly and with respect to myself and those that hire me. While pet/house sitting, I will abide the rules given to me. This could include when they play, where they sleep, any medications needed, when to eat, etc.

About: I absolutely love dogsitting! Growing up without any pets of my own, due to an animal allergy that I have outgrown, getting the opportunity to love on your fur babies has been a dream! I work with in a senior citizen home, but I also have taken care of senior dogs before, administering medications, both orally and through an injection. I love treating your fur babies as one of my own and I am more than glad to do whatever you need to make you the most comfortable with me watching your fur babies. I take loads of pictures, videos, etc.! My job is pretty flexible. I can potty your fur babies in the afternoon, if needed. Upon booking, I can provide you my availability! Just ask me, I am more than welcome to let you know when I can pop in to potty your animals during the day :) I love on them, play with them, make sure their water and food bowl is always full when obviously needed. I make sure they are taken outside as often as they need it.

“I recently moved from NY to KY and was in need of someone to help care for my four dogs. I had spoken to many people and wasn’t comfortable with anyone as I had my prior dog walker in Ny for over 10 years. I found Tanika and she and I hit it off right away: she was super accommodating to my ever changing schedule. I was nervous to have my one rescue dog meet anyone because he could be unpredictable. Tanika came armed with treats and was relaxed and so easy going with all the dogs that he took to her first!!!! Tanika had been above and beyond amazing . She helps with my dogs that have medical issues and she is always there when and if I need her. She takes care of my dogs as if they were her own and I’ve never had to worry about them when I’m away. She is an absolute god send and I highly recommend her!”

I have lots of experience with large dogs especially since my family has always owned black labs. I am a student at UK studying Forestry and Wildlife Biology! I attend classes full time but I have full availability on weekends. I can work around my class schedule for drop-in visits and walks. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space to play! There are currently no other pets in my home, so no need to worry about antisocial animals feeling stressed or territorial.

About: I treat all animals like my own. I’ve pet sit/house sit for many people. My family and friends like to joke that I like animals more than humans sometimes. My favorite thing is when I see positive; happy behaviors from animals that I take care of, including my own. I have a border collie mix that is full of energy and I love it so much. I would love to make your life easier while caring for and helping your pets also have enjoyment in the small things like walks or playing with toys, whatever makes them happy :) I work full time. I work 3rd shift (overnight). I normally have a few hours of down time between work and sleeping. I’m either relaxing or walking my dog. I would love to help someone out and hopefully make their life a little easier with that extra time When I am welcomed into other peoples homes I am always respectful and ask questions about how they like things done. When I’m taking care of their pets, I always ask clarifying questions to make sure I’m not messing up anyone else’s environment and/or routine.

About: I have grown up around dogs and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for them. Growing up, I worked for a dog breeder, which gave me experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs. I have also pet sat for multiple family friends over the years, providing reliable care while their owners were away. I have a dog of my own at home, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet. As a UK nursing student, I am responsible, attentive, and compassionate, and I would love to give your pets the same care and attention I give my own! I am currently a nursing student, with classes on Mondays and Tuesdays, as well as clinical on Wednesdays. I am free Tuesday mornings before 10:45 am, and any time Thursdays and Fridays. Also can be available some Wednesday afternoons. Kind of just depends but am always willing to work something out when I do not have class or clincal. I will follow any guidelines you have for your pets. Whatever way you like for them to use the restroom (just in yard or from walks) or can also feed if needed. Will do tasks if instructions are given.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Wilmore

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Wilmore is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $20 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 813 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Wilmore. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wilmore. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
